Radja Nainggolan has had a nightmare.
Following a promising start to Wednesday's clash by Roma, the Belgian scuffed a pass to nobody in the middle of the park. Roberto Firmino picked up the offering and strode upfield before releasing Sadio Mane for a ninth-minute opener at the Stadio Olimpico.
The goal put Liverpool 6-2 ahead on aggregate in the second leg of their Champions League semi-final, and marked the first goal Roma conceded on home turf during this continental term.
